    No, use different ports for each version or instance or uTorrent to allow proper communication with the tracker.

    Note it's not advisable to run torrents from the same tracker among multiple instances. Most people will never do this, but for the tracker it looks suspicious, as if you had forgotten to use the memory reader in the RM because of the different peer_ids.

    Great method specially when you specify which version to use which torrent files so if your computer crashes or shutdown suddenly you won't lose anything, I may use one of them in seeding process to get some bonus and seedhours

    There will always be some data loss if your computer crashes, because of disk caching. That's why uTorrent rechecks your downloads after a crash, to know what pieces has to redownload.

    I want to run my regular utorrent for seeding and downloading but i want to use the utorrent "No complete-report seeder mod" for PTPC bonus points...

    Is it safe to run both of them simulatenously... The "No complete-report seeder mod" has a seperate settings.dat and no original file from the other utorrent is being shown in the mod ?

    And secondly do i need to change any settings or just let the mod run for grabbing bonus points P.S on the other utorrent there is no file of PTPC running

    So it will be if you put the mods in separate directories.

    And secondly do i need to change any settings or just let the mod run for grabbing bonus points
    If torrents are running, it's earning you bonus points. Remember to use different ports and such.

    Yes, use different ports for both mods.

    why cant trackers use a old version of uTorrent that they trust like azeureus most trackers accept 2.5.0.4. It is annoying having 2 different uTorrent open at the same time.

    its not at all annoying
    the trackers have not forced anybody to open 2 instances
    its the end user whos opening 2 instances for his own usage
    like its been brought out in earlier post - to get seed bonus/points
    the uT mod can be used to get some points and normal torrenting can continue with your default uT

    A few trackers don't allow newer versions of uTorrent due to the call-homes on them. So you'd need to run both 1.6.1 for those and 1.8.5 for the rest that allow it, for example.

    yes that correct
    but as you yourself have told it would be suspicious if you are on uT 1.6 and others on uT 1.8 on same tracker
    there are some trackers which only allow uT 1.6

    Guys, I'm having a very annoying problem, I use different versions of uTorrent instances : 1.7.7 and 2.0.2, uTorrent 2.0.2 is the main client and whenever i want to load a torrent in RM and simulate the 1.7.7, i simply can't because it will only work for the main 2.0.2 client.

    Any solutions?
